Adidas Originals has teamed up with Fall Out Boy in a special collaboration. Artist Stan Smith has worked together with Fall Out Boy on a recently revealed sneaker, that FOB showcased on Instagram. Boasting a White leather design adorned with Blue accents on the perforated Three Stripes and heel tabs, it also features exposed stitching. A White rubber sole with a unique bumpy layer embraces the foot, sitting atop a vulcanized outsole. No release date quite yet...
It’s unclear what silhouette is pictured here, but the perforated side stripes, leather heel overlays and smooth toe boxes are reminiscent of the classic Stan Smith. The midsoles are bereft of any exposed stitches and adidas labels and instead appear with a bumpy layer that wraps around the front. A majority of the real estate here is designed with bright white finishes while solid blue accents poke out through the Three Stripes branding and the aforementioned rear overlays. Call-outs to the “Sugar We’re Goin Down” crooners are present via the band’s moniker that is printed on the collars as well as its FOB crown insignia that appears on the rear. The emblem references Fall Out Boy‘s song “Young Volcanoes” and serves as a tribute to the late artist Jean-Michel Basquiat.
